This photograph captures a lone figure, perhaps a fisherman or local resident, strolling across a coastal barrier made of geotextile sandbags. The sky looms overcast above an agitated sea, hinting at the unpredictable temper of nature. Below, the earth-toned and weathered sandbags create a stark contrast against the leaden sky and frothy sea, symbolising the perpetual battle against coastal erosion. As a handful of dogs accompany the central figure—some resting on the sandbags, others following their course—the image evokes a sense of daily life, resilience, and companionship in a landscape shaped by the hands of both man and nature.
